Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar: A domestic servant working at the residence of a senior woman police officer allegedly stole 8 tolas of gold jewellery and Rs 4,000 in cash from the bedroom.
According to details, the senior woman police officer serving in the city police force resides in a colony near Adalat Road.
As per the complaint given by her mother, gold bangles weighing 8 tolas and cash kept in the bedroom of her house went missing between January 6 and January 16.
